I don't have the players in front of me, but I believe that players drafted a few spots before and after Parrish have signed. Hopefully Roscoe's agent will agree to terms(by the end of the week) somewhere between the players already signed

I found the Collin Raye version. I wasn't listening very close at the store and the sound was low, but I could swear it was a female singing. Maybe it's middle age playing games with my hearing.

I was in a store recently where they were playing a song with the hook "That's my story and I'm sticking to it". It was a country female singer/group and I'm trying to find out who it is that is singing this song. I searched around on the internet, but did not come up with any leads. Any help?

Depending on when you will be in Buffalo, you could take in the Erie County Fair. If you can keep the kids out of the midway, there are plenty of things to see and do for free with the gate admission. http://www.americas-fair.com/

If you go to the Naval Park, take a walk through the Erie Basin Marina(it's right next door) before or after. The kids will love walking on the rocks and climbing up the tower at the end of the marina. Grab an ice cream for the kids and a cold beer for dad and you'll be all set.

Read his signature...

Yeah....who cares about wins and losses as long as the Bills have a balanced attack!

How about the #10-12 guys on NBA teams who only see the court during warm-ups... http://www.hoopshype.com/salaries.htm

Keep in mind that the compensatory picks are awarded based on the the performance of players you lost in a given year(JJ & PW) versus players you signed in that same year(Anderson & Holcomb. I'm not sure about Rashard Lee).

In 1986, he became the oldest player to ever win The Masters. In all, he had 48 top-3 finishes in majors, including 19 second places and nine thirds, 56 top-5 finishes and 73 top-10 finishes. In 1998, at the age of 58 he finished an impressive sixth in The Masters. I'm sure this could be looked upon as "why didn't he win more majors when he was that close". Instead, I look at these stats and am amazed that he could be that competive in the most pressure filled tourneys each and every year. WOW!!

A great example of a player not taking the rookie symposium seriously was Sean Taylor who took off have way through the symposium and then proceeded to have multiple off the field incidents during his rookie year.

You probably won't hear anything from TD on his attempts to re-sign NC. My guess is that somewhere down the road, NC's agent will spout off about not having received any offer or a lowball offer.

In a backup role TH would get 15-20 carries a game? I think it would be more like 1 or 2 series(5-7 carries) at best to just give WM a breather.

Are any of the remaining guys part of the "pro ranks"??

Maybe McMichael was featured at the rookie symposium as "this is the POS you DON'T want to have as your role model!"

Why not climb through the ranks of girls junior tournaments, college golf, the LPGA and after you have had success at those levels, take on the men. What has she WON to date from an amatuer standpoint?

This is a beauty from a recent TH thread.... Yeah things look alot better than the did amonth ago. On a side note I don't think we should trade him but if we do, wich we are going to, things look better.

TD is trying to start a grass roots movement to convince the NHL players to vote down the CBA.

Is this true? I can't believe with the talent on that club(including signing AW to a huge contract last season), that they could be that far under the cap?

It brings teams "somewhat" closer together, but it's not a level playing field like the NFL, where most teams are within a couple of million dollars of the cap limit. Like I stated earlier, you will still have teams spending 25-35% more on player salaries than others. IMO...I do not look for the Sabres to go on a spending spree landing top notch players left and right, like some folks do. No matter what happens, I will have my part season tickets for 05-06 and am glad to see hockey coming back.

...and WM is way too good to be sitting on the bench splitting time with TH. TH has his limitations as have been well doumented on TSW over the last year. Get what you can and move on. WM is the starter at RB and will be for the forseeable future.

The same can be said for the other 31 teams in the league. We'll see how things shake out.

You better rethink your stand on Zhitnik. Unless the Sabres plan on bringing in 1 or 2 top notch defensive defensemen, your #3-6 guys on the blueline are filled with journeymen like Jillson, Brown, Campbell and a 40-something James Patrick.
